My funniest moment

 My funniest moment

    My funniest moment began when I started with my story with my classmate who had just returned from athletic training. On the way, who knows who started first, we argue about who is faster to run because both of us no one would give up. Finally we decided to test it by running as far as a block (100 meters). At that time, about 6 o’clock in the evening and the situation was quite the doom and gloom.

     We took their positions and 1... 2... 3... My friend and I ran ‘sprint’ as soon as possible. Obviously we are both balanced and as fast.

     A few meters from the end of the block (which is the finish line) suddenly a guard on patrol in each block chased us. The guard ran quickly and are just a few meters behind us.

    I wonder. Why the guard was chasing the two of us. We tried to run as fast as possible for fear caught by the guard. I’ve had no time to think and as I nervously ran to 5 blocks with my friend earlier. The guard strong enough because he still followed us. Though I’ve been tried but I still running.  Past the sixth block of the two of us are not hard to run and we fatigue.

     Finally at the junction of the small lanes we both stopped and sighs of fatigue. A few minutes later the guard also arrived at our place and he stopped with a gasping breath. The three of us were silent for a few seconds, respectively unwind. Finally after a relatively quiet, with a wonder that I asked the guard

“Uncle, why do we pursue?”

The guard looked bewildered, may still be confusion and fatigue. The guard replied in a thick Javanese.

“Lha koe wong loro mlayu ok aku yo melu, lha kiro nek ono opo ngono”

Meaning.
“Just now I saw you two ran so fast. I think there is anything that happens. So I go away too...

This story told by my brother.

What can I do to prevent pollution?

What can I do to prevent pollution?

     Many ways that we can do to prevent pollution among them is through urban storm water runoff that keep litter, pet wastes, leaves and debris out of street gutters and storm drains such as these outlets drain directly to lake, streams, rivers and wetlands. We also can apply lawn and garden chemicals sparingly and according to directions. Dispose of used oil, antifreeze, paints and other household chemicals properly, not in storm sewers or drains. If your community does not already have a program for collecting household hazardous wastes, ask your local government to establish one. Then clean up spilled brake fluid, oil, grease and antifreeze. Do not hose them into the street where they can eventually reach local streams and lakes. We must control soil erosion on your property by planting ground cover and stabilizing erosion- prone areas.

     Moreover then that we also can prevent pollution through mining. That become involved in local mining issues by voicing your concerns about acid mine drainage and reclamation projects in your area.

     Then through forestry that use proper logging and erosion control practices on your forest lands by ensuring proper construction, maintenance and closure of  logging roads and skid trails. Also can report questionable logging practices to state and federal forestry and state water quality agencies.

    And lastly agriculture that manage animal waste to minimize contamination of surface water and ground water. Also must protect drinking water by using less pesticides and fertilizers. Reduce soil erosion by using conservation practices and other applicable best management practices.

The legend of 1900

The Legend Of 1990

     After the Second World War, Max a transplanted America, visits an English pawn shop to sell his trumpet. The shopkeeper recognizes the tune Max plays as one on wax master of an unreleased recording, discovered and restored from shards found in a piano salvaged from a cruise ship turned hospital ship, now slated for demolition. This chance discovery prompts a story from Max, which he relates both to the shopkeeper and later to the official responsible for the doomed vessel, for Max is a born storyteller.

     Though now down on his luck and disillusioned by his wartime experiences, the New Orleans born Max was once an enthusiastic and gifted young jazz musician, whose longest gig was several years with the house band aboard the Virginian, a posh cruise ship. While gaining his sea legs, he was befriended by another young man, the pianist in the same band, whose long unlikely name was Danny Boodman T.D.Lemons 1900, though everyone just called him 1900, the year of his birth. Abandoned in first class by his immigrant parents, 1900 was found and adopted by Danny, a stoker and raised in the engine rooms, learning to read by reading horseracing reports to his adoptive dad.

     After Danny’s death in accident, 1900 remained on the ship. Increasingly lured by the sound of the piano in the first-class ballroom, he eventually became a gifted pianist, a great jazz improvisationist a composer of rich modern music inspired by his intense observation of the life around him, the stories passengers on all levels of the ship trusted him enough to tell. He also grew up to be a charming, iconoclastic young man, at once shrewd and oddly innocent. His talent earned him such accolades that he was challenged by Jelly Roll Morton in an intense piano duel that had poor Max chewing paper on the sofa in agonies of suspense. And yet for all the richness and variety of his musical expression, he never left the ship, expect almost, once in the aftermath of his infatuation with beautiful young woman immigrant who inspired the music committed to the master Max discovers in the pawnshop. Max realizes that 1900 must still be on the ship, and determines to find him, and to find out once and for all why he has so consistently refused to leave.

Life without limps or life without limits.

Life without limps or life without limits.

Imagine being born without arms. No arms to wrap around a friend, no hand to hold the ones you love, no fingers to experience touch, no way to lift or carry things. How much difficult would life be if you were living without arms and hand? Or how about legs? Imagine if instead of no arms, you had no legs. No ability to dance, walk, run, or even stand. Now put both of those scenarios together. No arms no legs. How would that affect your everyday life?

But no with Nick Vujicic. Born in 1982 in Brisbane, Australia, without any medical explanation or warning, Nicholas Vujicic came into the world with neither arms nor legs. Imagine the shock his parents felt when they saw their first-born new baby boy for the first time, only to find he was what the world would consider imperfect and abnormal.

Throughout his childhood, Nick dealt not only with typical challenges of school and adolescence such as bullying and self-esteem issues, but also struggled with depression and loneliness. He constantly questioned why he was different than all the other kids surrounding him, why he was the one born without arms and legs. He wondered what the purpose behind his life was, or if he even had a purpose. According to Nick, the victory over his struggles throughout his journey, as well as the strength and passion he has for life can be credited to his faith in God. His family, friends and the many people he has encountered along the way have also encouraged him.

When he was 28 years old, this limbless young man has accomplish more than most people accomplish in a lifetime. Nick recently made the massive move from Brisbane, Australia to California, USA where he is the President of an international 501c3 non-profit organization; Life without Limbs. Since his speaking engagement back when he was 19, Nick has travelled around the world, sharing his story with millions of people, speaking to a range of difficult groups such as students, teachers, youth, businessmen and women, entrepreneurs and church congregations of all sizes. He has also told his story and been interviewed on various televised programs worldwide. “ if god can use a man without arms and legs to be His hands and feet, then He will certainly use any willing heart”

How do you feel about love?

How do you feel about Love?

Love is something I feel. Through time immemorial people have been trying to define love, understand love, feel love, and practice love. Yet, in the end, most would agree that love is something what I feel. What I feel in my heart and in my emotion. I can’t define it. I can only experience it.  I can’t describe it in ways that gives it justice. I can wax on eloquently about its meaning but in the end it is almost indescribable. But without a doubt, love is a many splendored.

            The truth about love is the following with true love, real love and unrequited love cannot be defined. True love can only be felt. True love is an emotion. True love is a feeling I have for another human being that is different from the love I have ever felt for another human being. In the end, to understand about true love I must go with my heart. Don’t make love so complicated. Don’t make love indefinable. In the end, understand love by how I feel, how I feel in my heart. So that goes with the flow. Love someone for life. Love someone deeply. Love someone intimately. Love someone for myself, and for them. There is nothing like it.

           Love is not chemical, psychological, religious, or physiological. It is all of these. But in the end, love is something I feel. it is something what I feel first in my heart and then in my head. Love is compassionate, arousing, uplifting.

         Love is a tricky emotion. There are something that feel like love but they are much too superficial to be the real thing. Real love takes time and doesn’t happen overnight.
